Description
This beautifully renovated classic five-room home consists of a large entry foyer, living room, formal dining room with double exposure (which easily converts to a proper third bedroom), separate kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and the kind of quiet that's hard to find in the city.
Sleek, modern and bright windowed kitchen with WOLF 4-burner gas range with grilling station, BEST vented range hood, JENN-AIR French door refrigerator, BOSCH dishwasher, KRAUS undermount sink with pullout spray faucet, and WHIRLPOOL washer & vented dryer. Marble countertops with cozy two-seat breakfast bar area, cabinets with soft-close doors & drawers, and a wall of built-in cabinets in the adjacent service hallway complete this amazing kitchen.
The corner primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and bathroom that features a large walk-in shower with built-in recessed shelving and TOTO bidet. The second bedroom is generously sized with en suite bathroom.
The apartment preserves its original pre-war elegance with elements such as herringbone flooring, high beamed ceilings, and oversized windows facing north, west, and east. The rooms are all impressive in scale and a smart layout provides for comfortable living and easy entertaining. The apartment shares the west wing of the building with just one other apartment ensuring maximum privacy and quiet from every direction.
Located on a quiet tree-lined block near Riverside Park, 321 West 78th Street is an intimate 10-story co-op (just 53 units) built in 1924.
